I have used Excel.csv files, and have found they work for me...so far. In the past, when I could get a csv, I found it useful to be able to select what I wanted. For eg, I didn't want all youth activities, but did want the New Years Dance, for eg. Or, not all Stake President events, but did want Stake President Firesides.
